Career
In 2010, Praetorius joined the Royal Danish Ballet as an apprentice at the age of 16. At first, she was cast in little girl roles. However, between age 16 and 18, she grew taller, which forced her to work on her balance. She was promoted to the corps de ballet and soloist in 2014.[1] At age 19, she made her debut as Juliet in John Neumeier's Romeo and Juliet, the same age as Mette-Ida Kirk was in 1974, when she was selected by Neumeier to dance in his first Copenhagen Romeo and Juliet. She was chosen by Thomas Lund to dance with him in The Lesson for his farewell performance.[2]
In April 2016, Praetorius was promoted to principal dancer with the Royal Danish Ballet by the company's artistic director, Nikolaj Hübbe on stage after her performance as Juliet in Neumeier's Romeo and Juliet.[3] She has danced roles such as Odette/Odile in Swan Lake and Marguerite Gautier in The Lady of Camellias.[4]
She has made guest appearances internationally, including Hamburg Ballet, where her mother danced, as well as in U.S. and Canada. Neumeier taught her his Daphnis et Chloé himself.[4][1] In 2020, Praetorius participated in Misty Copeland's fundraiser, Swans for Relief, by dancing The Swan, in light of the impacts of the 2019-20 coronavirus pandemic on the dance community.
